Water Resistant Thread

An example of a water resistant product from our range is Dual Duty AW. This has a special water resistant finish which inhibits the capillary effect, thereby ensuring that no water is taken up by the thread. This premium quality corespun thread combines a high tenacity polyester filament core with a natural cotton cover. When the correct sewing tension is used, the transport of water through the needle hole is prevented.

Dual Duty AW is a popular thread for speciality applications, e.g. sailing gear, life jackets, heavy duty awning and tent sewing. It is a premium quality corespun thread that combines a high tenacity polyester filament core with a natural cotton cover.

Examples of uses:

• Sporting equipment
• Outdoor goods
